I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Chrissy, who was a classmate at Bishop England High with me. We were in the same homeroom. I always remembered her sweet smile and kind words conveying empathy, and that would make me feel so much better whenever I was going through a rough time. She will be missed. Please know that the Theos and Adams families are in my constant thoughts and prayers during this sad time.
